Most readers of the Triplicate know about the Community Assistance Network (C.A.N.) because it has been around since 1995, providing food, clothes and other types of assistance to people in need. For those of you who’ve never heard of C.A.N., we are a Christian-oriented charity supported mostly by local churches and local individual donors. We no longer accept federal funding.

Do more to beautify town, make it easier to get around

​The people of the Klamath section are justly proud of their sons and daughters who are in the Armed Services of their country and are planning the erection of a permanent honor roll as a lasting tribute to these heroes of World War II. Few other localities can boast of a greater contribution, and already three of Klamath’s valiant fighting men — Frank Isles Jr., Wayne A. Larson and Floyd Pilgrim — have made the supreme sacrifice.

Many people made ’85 reunion a success

On July 3, the Del Norte High School Class of 1985 held their 30 year class reunion. It was a funfilled evening with lots of laughter, stories and a few tears. The event was a huge success, thanks to many hours of hard work from members of the class.

There are still heroes in our midsts, folks. I met one on July 6th that has restored my faith in the kindness of strangers, so please let me tell you the story so that you can also share in the blessing of this kind stranger that helped on this date.

C.A.N. thanks community for supporting fundraiser

The Community Assistance Network (C.A.N.) food bank would like to express its gratitude to all the people who made our Fourth of July fireworks fundraiser such a great success. Special appreciation goes to all the members of the public who purchased fireworks at our booth, enabling us to continue feeding the hungry of Crescent City and Del Norte County. A huge thanks goes to Pastor Brett Wells and Faith Christian Center of Smith River for donating their deluxe fireworks booth to C.A.N. and for co-laboring with us at the booth this year, and for giving us the opportunity to continue this fundraiser for years to come. We’re also enormously grateful to Two Guys, who loaned us the use of a flatbed truck; to Cliff Coulton for letting us borrow his truck and trailer and to Ace hardware for generously letting us use their parking lot and facilities. Last but not least, we’d like to thank the many C.A.N. volunteers who gave of their time and labor to sell fireworks and to set up and break down the booth. And, naturally, we thank God, from whom all blessings flow.
